MussonMusson — who as an Altadena Town Councilman is an unpaid volunteer himself — said that the internship is also to be an educational experience.  “There’s a great opportunity for them to have something to add to their resume, as well as having something to add to county government,” Musson said. “There’s a description [on the website] of the things that I need help with in the office — for instance, when we need curbs repainted, rather than me call, have the intern call.  Making some of those calls for county services, maybe doing some research …”

“Half of the job is just about learning all of those fields, being present and being privy to what goes on. … I’m trying to do what I can to help these kids — it can’t hurt to have more participation from the community — I’d rather have the kids involved so when they take those leadership roles they know what’s going on.”

Musson emphasized that the internship position was “not a town council function, it’s a Councilman Brent Musson function.”  The internship is open to high school juniors and seniors and college students, and is not restricted to residents of his census tract, 4610.
